2023, November 20-26

We celebrated Thanksgiving with new friends, and Eliza got friendly with some new horses. 

Eliza had the chance to look after some local horses, and this week, the owner's wife invited her to feed them while the family was out of town for Thanksgiving. She even got paid! Here she is on Monday taking Raunchy and Jack on a ride around the field where they live.




Thanksgiving preparations started early with some make-ahead items. Hallie found some good recipes and got supplies, and Mike cooked some of them up early in prep for the next day. 

On Thanksgiving morning, Mike took Eliza over to Raunchy and Jack's and helped her feed them. 

Here we are, enjoying Thanksgiving dinner with the Melos, Lisa, and Marcos. Landon is clearly happy about the goodies he's about to eat. 


Friday morning dawned cold and snowy. We only got an inch or so. Winter has finally arrived.

Even with the weather, Eliza was enthusiastic about feeding the ponies. 


Good ol' Fergie found Eliza's blanket covered behind to be comforting.  


We took a couple of days switching over from the fall decor to Christmas decorations. Seems like the Holidays came up out of nowhere!  


Landon is studying for his learners permit and hopes to get on the road learning to drive for reals in the next couple of weeks.
